  1. Because it would make decent person feel good to show appreciation for someone doing a not very well paid job.
  2. It definitely is dependent on the type of place
  3. It’s not about being preoccupied, it’s about doing the decent thing and helping people who are most likely not as well off as you.
  4. Nope, it’s just Emirates being Emirates. I was loyal to them for 10 years, but it’s a one way loyalty and having watched the standard of service drop through the floor my loyalty is gone.
  5. Oh you got me. I really want to be just like you
  6. When you reach the bottom of the barrel scrape a bit more…and there you’ll find Bob, rejected by “real” Thai girls. Even I feel soiled by this post.
  7. Well that’s a minute of my life I’ll never get back.
  8. He’s miserable now. Why should I be made to feel the same?
  9. He’s just too much of a threat to the old guard's grip on power and money. They’re not about to give that up.
  10. But most of the anti Indian “jokes” are still here.
  11. In a forum populated by a majority of old immigrants who think they’re expats, this form of racism is par for the course.
  12. I see what you mean by expensive!
  13. Could you define “ a bit expensive “ please”! I’m often in Hua Hin so if you have a recommendation for someone there I’d appreciate it too. edit, just noticed that you said you haven’t used anyone in HH
  14. I wasn’t saying that the ones I’ve seen in bkk don’t use manipulation, rather that it wasn’t the main focus. I’m not planning to visit CM before January but may well follow up. Thanks for your recommendation
  15. Some definitely are quacks but I’ve tried osteos ( back home not here) and had similar experiences. The only truly great osteo I knew has retired.
  16. Over the years I’ve tried 3 or 4 different Chiropractors, mostly North American, one was Thai. I found them all pretty useless. Treatment was mostly using machines and massage rather than manipulation and adjustment. So I’m looking for recommendations for a real chiropractor in Bangkok.
  17. For me it would be a rescue Soi dog. No need for a “posh” breed.
  18. Everything he does is about him, nothing else, no one else, just Anutin.
  19. The DL used to work, then they started refusing it but the pink card still worked. But more recently I’ve heard that that doesn’t work anymore. I haven’t tested it, so many national parks are a big disappointment that I’ve given up.
  20. It’s fair to give discount to locals, I.E. those who live locally and those who don’t do not get the discount. It’s unfair to overcharge foreigners. There is a difference between a discount, the standard rate and overcharging. Surely you can see that?
  21. Teach them that it’s “our culture”to rip off foreigners. And that’s why we say they are all pride and no shame. I have more self respect than to take that attitude
  22. Do they charge extra to use the back door?
  23. Why bother when you can buy one there????
